Captcha Options for Concrete5
Permalink
Hi All,
This is my first post in this forum, and I'm not sure if this has been asked and answered; however I'm looking for a simple captcha for our website.
Initially, I implemented reCaptcha, but I had trouble getting the server-side validation of the captcha to work properly, and users were able to submit the form without checking the captcha box. Also, my manager didn't really like the method of presenting images to the end user. I'm looking for an alternative captcha that presents either a simple string of numbers to verify, or presents a simple math captcha. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

There is a free add-on for reCaptcha with the "are you a human" checkbox in the Marketplace that has worked well for me -http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/recaptcha...
Thanks Hutman! I actually have this installed, the problem I'm having is that a user can bypass clicking the checkbox, and still submit the form without going through the captcha challenge.
On what type of form? I've used this on 5.8.1 and it seemed to work fine for me

It's just a basic contact form running on 5.6.0.2.
I haven't tried the reCaptcha for a Legacy site, is there a reason you're on such an old version? 5.6.3.4 is the current 5.6 version and there are many bug fixes between your version and that one that might fix this issue.
Also, when you installed the package did you install your Google reCaptcha API keys?

Quite honestly, it's a site that I inherited and we're probably going to redesign the entire site. However, this is a problem that I need to solve in the short term. Yes, the keys are there, but I think the issue is PHP related when the app attempts to verify whether the user completed the challenge.
When you did your installation, did you have to create/modify the PHP code for the server side validation of the challenge?

As I said, I used this in 5.8.1, but no I did not have to make any code changes.
Ok, maybe I'll try the upgrade route in the interim...thanks for the assist!
